The picture is my list of tasks to get done for today. I’ve been pretty sick all week and I’m not used to doing nothing.

Despite trying everything the doc usually suggests, I got worse. Sometimes you just have to lean on medicine and antibiotics. I saw the doctor Wednesday and as typical for me, sinus infection and bronchitis. I felt and sometimes still feel like I’m suffocating. But, I do feel that I’m turning the corner on just 3 doses so far of Augmentin, asthma inhaler (wish I had a nebulizer), and good ole Mucinex.

I’m exhausted from coughing and struggling to breathe, headache and backache from coughing. I made my bed and took a shower. Then I had to sit for a bit. Haha! Ugh.

What if I fail to get the simple things done that I have listed? So what?!! Taking care of myself physically is what matters the most. Because there’s usually tomorrow.

Take care of yourself so there will be tomorrow. Slow down, take a break and have no shame nor guilt.
